The touch key is the only key that can be used while the cover is on, and it has the
functionality as the Down key. You can scroll through the Measuring Mode by using
this key.
~Note Insert a coin cell battery in the packing items to “A”.
Refer to4.5 : How to insert/remove the battery for the procedure.

3.2.1 : Measuring mode

Measuring mode of HDM displays the current values of the measured data. The dis-
play shows the values of PV1(sum of C6+) - PV20(relative density RDre) one by one
in order. When HDM is first turned on, HDM will be in Measuring Mode, and the
value of PV12 (Default: SCVre-superior calorific value) will be displayed. An opera-
tor can cycle through the data by touching the Touch Key or Up/Down keys (inside the
HDM cover). The figure below shows the display cycle of PV1 - PV20 values.
~Note Only the effective decimal places are displayed for each parameter (other
decimal places are truncated.)

3.2.2 : Operator's mode

To enter Operator's Mode from Measuring Mode, press down the “MODE” key for
3 seconds. The display will show “Operator's Mode” for 1 second and then the display
will automatically show the current time.
Operator's mode is used to configure HDM clock (current time and GMT time differ-
ence) and self-check setup. The default setting for the clock is 01/01/00 00:00 (dd/mm/
yy hh:mm) and the GMT time difference is +9 hours. And all self-check components
are turned ON. The operator of HDM should decide which tests are to be performed by
HDM. In Operator's Mode, the operator can scroll through each configuration using
the up/down keys located inside the HDM.
The figure on the next page shows the cycle of the configuration settings in the Opera-
tor's mode.
To setup the clock, press up/down keys in operator's mode until the clock display
appears. Then using the Right key, move the cursor from its starting position on the
asterisk, (*) to the digit you wish to change. At the desired position, change the digit
by using the up/down keys.
To setup the GMT time difference, press up/down keys in operator’s mode until the
“GMT time diff” display appears. Then using the right key, move the cursor from its
starting position on the asterisk, (*) to the digit you wish to change. At the desired
position, change the digit by using the up/down keys. Refer to “Appendix” about
GMT time difference.
To setup self-check sequence, go to the desired self-check setup using up/down keys.
Then move the cursor from the asterisk (*) using the Right key to ON/OFF position.
Using up/down keys, turn ON (or OFF) the function.
To return to Measuring Mode, hold down the “MODE” key for 3 seconds. Then a
confirmation message will appear to apply the changes. Select “Yes” to apply all
changes or “Cancel” to cancel all changes.

3.2.3 : Engineer's mode

To Enter Engineer's Mode from Operator's Mode, scroll through the Operator
Mode's configuration until “Engineer's Mode” is displayed. Then move the cursor to
where “MODE” is, and press the 'up' key.
To Enter Engineer's Mode from Measuring Mode, first enter operator's mode by
following the steps described in “Operator's Mode”. And then enter Engineer's Mode
using the method described above.
Engineer's Mode is used to setup the HDM properly before it is used. Configuration
such as Baud Rate and Parity are set here.
To change configuration, scroll through each configuration using up/down keys. At
the configuration you wish to change, move the cursor from the asterisk (*) to the right
side of the LCD. Then change the setting by using up/down keys. Move the cursor
back to the asterisk (*) to proceed to the next configuration.
The figure on the next page shows the cycle of the configuration settings in the Engi-
neer's mode.
To return to Measuring Mode, move the cursor back to the asterisk (*) and hold
down the “MODE” key for 3 seconds. When returning to Measuring mode, confirma-
tion message will appear to save all the changes that have been made in the Engineer's
Mode.

the HGC will publish 20 PV's every 4 seconds.
(6) Connect to Modbus host:
(6-1) Host configuration: Unit address, port, baud rate, data length and parity.
Those parameter values should meet the software setting for using man
machine interface (refer to section 3)
(6-2) Timing request and response between host and HDM are as following:
(a) Host reads 3058 registers. If this new data flag is set to a one, then host should
read PV1- PV20, and then set the 3058 register back to zero.
1 Host
(3058)
Read PV1 - PV20 0 Write "0" to 3058
(b) HDM performs scanning for new data availability and makes an update every
four seconds. When the new data is available, HDM will transfer the new data
from FB buffer to Modbus buffer, and the new data flag (3058) is set from zero
to one.

(c) In case of new data is received when the new data register (3058) is still one.
(Polling time of host computer is greater than five minutes, or host computer
does not write “0” to 3058 register after reading the new data), the HDM auto-
matically will set the 3058 to a zero, and after one second, it supplies new data
from FB buffer to Modbus buffer, and sets back the new data flag (3058) to be a
one. This refreshing data sequence will be done within 1 second

7.9 : Communication transmission modes

There are two modes of communication transmission available for use in the Modbus
system. Both modes provide the same capabilities of communication with slaves; but
the mode is selected depending on the equipment used as a Master Host. Only one
mode may be used at a time in a system. The modes are ASCII and RTU. The modes
are defined as follows:
Characteristic ASCII (7-bit) RTU (8-bit)
Hexadecimal (Using only the
Coding system ASCII characters 0 to 9 and A 8 bit binary
to F)
Start Bit 1 1
Data Bit 7, 8 8
1 bit (even or odd selectable) or 1 bit (even or odd selectable) or
No. Bit/Char Parity Bit
0 bit (no parity) available 0 bit (no parity) available
Stop Bit 1 1
Error Checking LRC CRC
7.10 : Standard byte-level format

In general, the interpretations of fields within a message are identical between the
RTU and ASCII transmission modes. The major differences are in the types of error
checking performed on the message and that the ASCII message has approximately
twice the number of characters used by the RTU.
In ASCII mode, the start of a message is signaled by the colon (:). Carriage return
(CR) and Line Feed (LF) indicates the end of a message.
The allowable characters transmitted for all other fields are hexadecimal (Using only
ASCII characters 0 to 9 and A to F).
In RTU mode, Coding system is 8 bit Binary.

The slave device will only accept the message if the following conditions are met:
a) The received message starts with a colon (:), and ends with the CRLF. (Only in
ASCII mode)
b) The ID byte (Unit address) matches its own. (Both modes)
c) The function code is valid. (Both modes)
d) The start register and number of registers fall within a range of pre-programmed
register address. (Both modes)
e) The error check byte (LRC or CRC) is the same as the calculated values.
7.10.1 : Unit address

Unit address is selectable by software setting of the Man-machine interface. Refer to
section 3 for details on the hardware setting and Man-machine interface. The address

field follows start of message and consists of 2 characters. These bits indicate the unit
address of the slave device that is to receive the message.
Each slave must be assigned a unique address and only the addressed slave will
respond to a query that contains its address. When the slave sends a response, the slave
address informs the master which slave is responding.
7.10.2 : Function code

The function code field tells the addressed slave what function to perform
The high order bit of the function code field is set by the slave device to indicate that
other than a normal response is being transmitted to the master device.
This bit remains 0 in a normal response.
To indicate the response is a notification of an error, the high order bit of the function
code field is set by the slave device to “1”.
The listing below shows the function codes supported by model HDM303
Function code Name Description
Read 16 bit integers, 32 bit integers or 32 bit floating point values,
3 Read Register
depending on start register value.
Writes 16 bit integers, 32 bit integers or 32 bit floating point
16 Write Register
values, depending on start register value.
When error occurs, the high order bit of the function code field is set by the slave
device to 1, and the exception code is generated. The following table shows the excep-
tion codes and there meaning:
Code Name Meaning
01 Illegal function Function code not supported by instrument
02 Illegal data address Register address not defined in instrument
03 Illegal data values Byte count not as expected or register does not exist
04 Not used
05 Not used
06 Not used
The following is an example of error response:

Unit address Function code Exception code LRC

The exception code indicates an illegal data address.

7.10.3 : Data
Data is transmitted MSB first. The value of an integer is represented in two's comple-
ment notation with the following format:
SIGN MAGNITUDE
15 14
Byte 1 Byte 2
The sign bit is 0 if the value is positive or zero, and 1 if the value is negative. The mag-
nitude is given in two's complement notation.
The integer format represent 16 bit signed integers ranging from -32768 to +32678
and occupies 2 contiguous bytes which can be viewed as 16 contiguous bits.
The value 905 would be transmitted as:
03H 89H
Byte 1 2
Where 89H is represented as
Bit7 Bit 0
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1
7.10.4 : Error check

The Modbus protocol provides several levels of error checking in order to assure the
quality of the data transmission. To detect multi bit error where the parity has not
changed, the system uses redundancy checks: Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) and
Longitudinal Redundancy Check. Which redundancy check is used will be depending
on the mode of transmission. RTU mode uses the cyclical check and the ASCII mode
uses the longitudinal check. The generation of CRC and LRC is explained as follows.
7.10.5 : LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check) error check sequence

When ASCII mode is used for character framing, the error-checking field contains two
ASCII characters. The error check characters are the result of a Longitudinal Redun-
dancy Check (LCR) calculation that is performed on the message contents, exclusive
of the beginning colon and terminating CRLF characters.
The LRC field is one byte, containing an eight-bit binary value. The LRC value is cal-
culated by the transmitting device, which appends the LRC to the message. The
receiving device calculates an LRC during receipt of the message, and compares the
calculated value to the actual value it received in the LRC field. If the two values are
not equal, an error results.
The LRC is calculated by adding together successive eight-bit bytes of message, dis-
carding any carries, and then two's complementing the result. It is performed on the
ASCII message field contents excluding the colon character that begins the message,
and excluding the CRLF pair at the end of the message.

Example:
Address 02 0000 0010
Function 03 0000 0011
Start register Hi 30 0011 0000
Start register Lo 00 0000 0000
Number of registers 03 0000 0011
Sum 0011 1000
1's complement 1100 0111
2's complement 1100 1000
LRC C8
Note the sum may exceed 8 bits - only the low order 8 bits are used.
7.10.6 : CRC-16 (Cyclic Redundancy Check) error check sequence

The CRC-16 error check sequence is implemented as described in the following para-
graphs.
The message (data bits only, disregarding start/stop and parity bits) is considered as
one continuous binary number whose most significant bit (MSB) is transmitted first.
The message is pre-multiplied by X^16 (shifted left 16 bits), then divided by X^16 +
X^15+X^2+1 expressed as a binary number (11000 0000 0000 0101). The integer
quotient digits are ignored and the 16-bit remainder (initialized to all ones at the start
to avoid the case of all zeros being an accepted message) is appended to the message
(MSB first) as the two CRC check bytes. The resulting message including CRC is
divided by the same polynomial.
(X^16+X^15+X^2+1) at the receiver will give a zero remainder if no errors have
occurred. (The receiving unit recalculated the CRC and compares it to the transmitted
CRC). All arithmetic is performed modulo two (no carries). An example of the CRC-
16 error check for message HEX 0207 (address 2, function 3, or a read request to slave
number 2) is given by the following example.
Example:
Unit address Function code Start register Number of
Hi Lo register
02 03 30 00 01 CRC
The device used to serialize the data for transmission will send the conventional LSB
or right-most bit of each character first. In generating the CRC, the first bit transmitted
is defined as the MSB of the dividend. For convenience and since there are no carries
used in the arithmetic, let's assume while computing the CRC that the MSB is on the
right. To be consistent, the bit order of the generating polynomial must be reversed.
The MSB of the polynomial is dropped since it affects only the quotient and not the
remainder. This yields 1010 0000 0000 0001 (Hex A001). Note that this reversal of the
bit order will have no affect whatever on the interpretation or bit order of characters
external to the CRC calculation.
The step-by-step procedure to form the CRC-16 check bytes is as follows;
1. Load a 16-bit register with all 1's.

2. Exclusive or the first 8-bit byte with the high order byte of the 16-bit register, put-
ting the result in the 16-bit register.
3. Shift the 16-bit register one bit to the right until the bit shifted out to right (flag) is
1.
4. If the bit shifted out to the right (flag) is 1, XOR the generating polynomial 1010
0000 0000 0001 with the 16-bit register.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until 8 shifts have been performed. Then perform XOR with
the function code (03).
6. Repeat this process with Start Register HI & LO and Number of Register.
7. The result (16 bit) is attached to the end of the message with 8 MSB first (actually
LSB) followed by the 8 LSB (actually MSB).

Storage Capacity: Maximum 18500 records  18500 / 12 (1 hour) / 24 (1day) =
64.2 days worth of records can be stored.
2. Contents of Monitoring Data
There are two types of monitoring data:
(1) The latest PV output data
Contents of Each Record: Steam No, Mode, Update Time, Error details, PV1 -
20 (PV1 - 11: After Normalization)
Storage Capacity: 1 (only the newest record is stored)
(2) Daily or Monthly average data
Contents of Each Record: PV1-12, 14, 16, 19 and 20
Storage Capacity: Only the 2 newest data is stored
These two data are for display purposes only and cannot be saved.

10.4 : Calculation of averages

1. Calculation of the Hourly Average (the maximum number of data that can be used in
the calculation is 16)
Example: Calculation performed at 7:00

The 7:00 hourly average is calculated by (1) adding all the PV values taken from hour
six of the analysis data and then (2) dividing the sum by the total number of added PV
values:
Value 1 (6:00 data) + Value 2 (6:05 data) + … +Value N (6:55 data)

N (total number of data)
~Note When the number of analysis data for the hour exceeds 16, the calcula-
tion is carried out using the 16 most recent data.
2. Calculation of the Daily Average (the maximum number of data that can be used in the
calculation is 28)
Example: Calculation performed at 0:00 on the third of the month

The daily average at 0:00 on the third of the month is calculated by (1) multiplying
each average PV value taken from day two analysis data by the respective numbers of
data used in the hourly averages, (2) adding all of the results together, and then (3)
dividing by the total number of data used in the operation:
HAV0*N0+HAV1*N1+…+HAV23*N23
N0+N1+…+N23
HAV0: Hourly average at 0:00 on the second day

N0: number of data used to calculate the hourly average at 0:00 on the second day
N1: number of data used in the hourly average at 1:00 on the second day
N23: number of data used in the hourly average at 23:00 on the second day
If the number of data in the one-day hourly average exceeds 28, the calculation is car-
ried out using the 28 most recent data.

3. Calculation of the Monthly Average (the maximum number of data that can be used in
the calculation is 35)
Example: Calculation of the monthly average at 0:00 on February 1st using the daily
average data from January
The daily average at 0:00 on February 1st is calculated by (1) multiplying each aver-
age PV value taken from the January daily average data by the respective numbers of
data used in the daily averages, (2) adding all of these results together, and then (3)
dividing by the total number of data used in the operation:
DAV1*DN1+DAV2*DN2+…+DAV31*DN31
DN1+DN2+…+DN31
DAV1: Daily average at 0:00 on January 1st

DN1: The number of data used in the daily average at 0:00 on January 1st
DAV2: Daily average at 0:00 hours on January 2nd
DN2: The number of data used in the daily average at 0:00 on January 2nd
DAV31: The daily average at 0:00 on January 31st
DN31: The number of data used in the daily average at 0:00 on January 31st
If the number of daily average data for one month exceeds 35, the 35 most recent data
are used to perform the calculation.
4. Evaluation Criteria for the Validity of Data in the Event of an Error

The validity of data is shown below for each type of error:
Warning Update of analysis data Validity of data
HDM Error RAM Error Updated Invalid
CPU Communication Error Not updated Invalid
Timer Error Updated Invalid
Battery Replacement Status Updated Valid
FB Line Error Not updated Invalid
HGC Response Factor Error Updated Valid
Oven temperature extremely high Not updated Invalid
Carrier Gas pressure error Not updated Invalid
Chromatogram baseline error Updated Invalid
Oven temperature error Updated Invalid
Carrier gas pressure out of control Updated Invalid
Chromatogram peak height over the
Updated Invalid
measurement range
HGC overhaul time Updated Valid
HGC data bad Not updated Invalid
Total raw error Updated Invalid
Retention time lock error Updated Invalid

Important:
Just before the battery is turned on/off and/or the time settings are changed, each aver-
age is calculated.
However, the above-mentioned time is compared to the current time and the following
evaluation criteria are used to determine whether it is necessary to calculate each aver-
age:
(1) All but the minute timestamp are correct: Data is taken without calculating the
average.
(2) The hour timestamp is incorrect but the date is correct: Only the hourly average is
calculated.
(3) The day timestamp is incorrect but month and year are correct: the hourly and
daily averages are calculated.
(4) Both year and month timestamps are incorrect: Hourly, daily, and monthly aver-
ages are all calculated.
